  • 1/4 red onion finely sliced
  • 2 tablespoons green peas
  • 1/4 lemon juiced and zested
  • 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions
 

  • First prepare Minty Hummus. Combine all ingredients in a food processor and blend until smooth. Alternatively, you can use a stick blender here. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • Season lamb chops generously with a few crunches each of salt and pepper.
  • Add half the butter to a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add in lamb chops and cook for 4 minutes, or until caramelised. Turn the chops over and add remaining butter. Cook for a further 3 minutes, then transfer to a plate to rest.
  • While lamb is resting, prepare the Minty Salad. Combine mint leaves, rocket, onion and peas in a large bowl. Dress with lemon juice, the zest and olive oil.
  • Serve lamb chops alongside Minty Salad and the Minty Hummus.
